Teaching Stem in the Early Years, 2nd Edition: Activities for Integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics
Stimulate and engage children's thinking as you integrate STEM experiences throughout your early childhood program. These engaging, developmentally appropriate activities maximize children's learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Each experience combines at least two STEM disciplines and incorporates materials and situations that are interesting and meaningful to children while ensuring educators understand the science concepts underpinning the activity.
As researchers and educators increasingly recognize how critical early childhood mathematics and science learning is in laying the foundation for children's later STEM education, this second edition of Teaching STEM in the Early Years is a much-needed resource for every early childhood classroom. It will encourage you to think differently about STEM education, and you will see how easy it is to accommodate curriculum goals and learning standards in math and science activities. This edition provides updated research and references and adds
